As we roll out Windows 8 more earnestly, we only have a couple right now, this is a major question we have to answer, whether to allow linking of domain accounts to live/microsoft accounts. What are the security implications? What kind of Store apps are out there? Are they safe? I think it's potential is great but how does it look in the real world. I haven't found much yet on the subject. Thanks for the post Paul.

What about the BYOD scenario where a user has already setup and deeply configured their machine and wants to join the work domain without creating a second profile. Adding the domain account to the windows profile. Not the other way around. I see that you can add the computer to the domain, but you don't see to be able to add the account, which makes it seem someone useless to add the machine to the domain. Seems like a major oversight to me and has definitely caused me grief.
